I've been sharing this paper over and over again with colleagues as I've found it to be a VERY helpful way to frame a research project to ensure your statistical models reflect project goals (e.g., inference vs. prediction). Definitely worth the read!

Job Alert 🚨 Forest-GEO & @NGEETropics are hiring for a Postdoc Fellowship in Tropical Forest Mortality 🍂 Application review begins March 15 🗓️ Visit our website for all the details: https://t.co/nJyBwYFnXM
I'm looking for potential collaborators on a project on biases in forest restoration and management. Particularly interested in people working for NGOs and Governmental organisations. Relevant folk from the global south would be particularly useful. Please RT for visibility.

We are pleased to share our new article, 'How to design multifunctional landscapes?' You can read the full work at: https://t.co/Tn5infDNf6
'Many of the greatest needs and opportunities in tropical forest science are therefore not to be found in space or in silico, but in vivo'
Cannot emphasize enough how on-the-ground science can make the whole scientific endeavour more relevant to policy and less naive.

Is more light always better for canopy trees?
In our new @Biotropica paper, we integrated drone imagery and ground-based data to assess the role of crown exposure to light, tree growth, size & wood density on the mortality of canopy trees in #AmacayacuFDP🧵

Here's a video explainer of our new @ScienceMagazine Policy Forum. We show that many big businesses are carrying out ecosystem restoration, but few are reporting outcomes with appropriate transparency. Paper at https://t.co/aLWyFAvEuh, DM me for a copy if you can't get access
The 2023 ForestGEO Analytical Workshop wrapped up last night with a final dinner in Gamboa.🌳Thank you to all participants for your hard work and dedication over the past 2 weeks, and safe travels home!🎉
Looking at the multifunctionality of #ecosystemservices at landscape & regional scales uncovers the benefits originating from interacting ecosystems + helps identify areas that should be protected, restored or sustainably managed ⛰

I am beyond happy to share our #newpaper📢: Spatial characterization of #SocialEcologicalSystems units for management in Tropical Dry Forests. We provided a methodology to spatially identify the components of SES at three relevant decision-making scales. https://t.co/MF884XhOao
Zoonotic diseases are transmitted from animals to humans & emergence is often due to human-driven landscape changes📈

Great to see this work out, which was brilliantly led by @ABuchadas. We highlight that tropical dry woodland deforestation tends to occur predominantly in areas of global and regional high conservation value https://t.co/t2a2vWSCLw @IIASAVienna@BiogeoBerlin@TobiasKuemmerle
We show ecological restoration in #palmoil without yield loss.
